Recording notes

From When the World Comes Down (2008). When the World Comes Down is the third studio album by American rock band the All-American Rejects, released on December 16, 2008, by Interscope Records. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Firebird through a Vox AC30CC2 Custom Classic, the rig we use for The All-American Rejects' other songs from When the World Comes Down, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.

    Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "Another Heart Calls" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else. The translation accounts for EQ curve, gain structure, and pickup type so the result actually sounds like the record, not just the same knob numbers on different gear.
